Taking the exam or waiting for your score?

Def waiting on the score..I have never been this stressed out in my life. And this is my 4th score release. I haven't slept well since Saturday night. Was looking so forward to waking up this morning to a score, even if it wasn't a passing one. And I am in the bubble. The horrible sleep continues.

It's finally freaking over.

Definitely waiting on score is more stressful.

Typically, the official score release is monday, but ninja-anticipated score release is one business day earlier than official date, Friday. In score release wave3 of Q2 2013, the REG score was not released on Friday. It was released on Saturday.

It made me wait from 12pm Friday to 9am Saturday. It was crazy..

Definitely waiting…thankfully, I only get stressed out the day before and the day of score release. I know some people on here start stressing at least a week before. I was also part of that screwed-up score release at the end of August. That was awful!!!

I'd have to say, though, that the most stressful part of this process was actually applying for the exam. NASBA messed up my application, and my coordinator refused to return my calls or acknowledge that I was eligible, despite the evidence I kept sending her that proved otherwise. I wasted the entire week of my final spring break in my hotel room doing NASBA's job for them and trying to get it straightened out (and yes, I'm still a little bitter).

Waiting for sure. The day of the exam I can positively talk myself up and get in the zone, and I drink a redbull right before the exam. Then after taking the exam, I go out for dinner / drinks to celebrate being done studying for a few days, so exam day is not so bad.

Waiting makes me feel like vomiting several times that day while checking the . I am still waiting for my score from taking the REG on 8/31! I've been doing my best to stay productive today, but it's so hard with this emotional turmoil of waiting.

BEC -(4/16/13)- 85
AUD -(7/16/13)- 75
REG -(8/31/13)- 86
FAR -(12/3/13)- 75

I am DONE!!
